Every dancer has big dreams…qualifying, recalling, moving up to championship, placing higher at a Major, or simply feeling confident every time they step on stage.

But here’s the truth most dancers don’t realise:

You don’t need more time… you need clearer focus.

Most dancers are held back not by ...

December is a magical month - sparkly lights, cosy nights, school plays, family time, and maybe just maybe… that feeling of “I should really be practising more.”

But here’s the truth every Dancer needs to hear (and every parent needs reminding of too):
Rest is not falling behind. Rest is part of you...

Big dreams are amazing…recalling at Majors, getting that world medal, Dancing on the big stage. But between those huge moments are hundreds of tiny ones… the ones that actually get you there.

So often, Dancers (and parents!) rush past the little wins because they don’t seem “big enough.” But here’s...

There comes a time in every Dancer’s journey when you start to see them take those little steps towards independence; packing their own dance bag, warming up without reminders, or walking out on stage with that “I’ve got this” look.

It’s equal parts beautiful and nerve-wracking (for you, not them 😉...

Let’s be honest, Dancing under pressure is hard! Whether it’s your first Feis, the Oireachtas, or a Major, those nerves can creep in quickly. The good news? Feeling nervous just means you care and caring is a superpower ❤️

But when the pressure builds, your focus can scatter. So today, we’re diving...

Every dancer knows the feeling…you’re halfway through your full and you can feel your crossover weakening.
You may think you’re over crossing… until you see the video back 😅

If your crossover isn’t as strong or consistent as you’d like, don’t panic. The truth is, poor crossover usually isn’t about “...

At this point in the season, many Dancers are pushing harder than ever - fulls at every class, extra practice sessions at home, long weekends of Feising, and the pressure of the Oireachtas on the horizon.

But what happens when your body and mind start saying “enough”?

Let’s talk about burnout…what...

The good news? You don’t have to spend hours working on this each week to make progress. The s...

October is one of the busiest months in the Irish dance world. With multiple Majors happening across organisations, Dancers and parents alike can feel the weight of expectation. The excitement is real, but so is the pressure. Mentally, physically, and emotionally, this season can be a lot to handle....

Results time at a Feis can stir up all the emotions - not just for your dancer, but for you too 💚 You want to celebrate their hard work, comfort them if they’re disappointed, and find the right words in the moment…but sometimes it feels like there’s no perfect script to follow.

The truth is, your d...

Irish Dance demands power, grace, and precision, and your feet are at the heart of it all. One of the biggest struggles Dancers face is getting that perfect arch and point and being able to maintain it throughout a whole Dance. 

The good news? 

You don’t need to spend hours each day to improve. Wi...

Irish Dancers are some of the busiest athletes out there. Between long school days, homework, training for Competitions, and still trying to have a social life, it can feel like there simply aren’t enough hours in the day.

The pressure builds - you want to do well at school, progress in Dance, perf...
